Hey guys, I am in my championship of my league currently. Its a H2H points league, I am facing a team on a roll that no one thought would get this far. I need some advice on who to start this week. I'll throw out my matchups and I need to pick 7 total for the week.

I am leaning towards Bailey Sun vs LAD, because its nice to have that Sunday night game pitchers just in case. And the matchup Colon has on Sunday vs Houston is pretty juicy... but I don't trust him anymore.

Hey Britter, I wouldn't start Bailey vs LA. Just purely from the standpoint that the Dodgers haven't slowed down since the All-Star break. Cincy is a good team obviously, but I'm assuming you need era, k's and W's so I'm a fan of Colon at home against Houston. Even though Colon hasn't been racking up strikeouts, I've seen pitchers all year who aren't strikeout pitchers rack up 7+ k's when they face the Astros. They are in last or near last place in most offensive categories. The A's are highly motivated to win right now due to their first place tie with TX, and it is in a pitchers park. Ryu is solid and on a hot team but I avoid Coors like the plague no matter who it is most times. Cliff Lee is a solid pick too. Will strike some guys out, but also facing the first place Braves... so with all that said, my recommendation is still Colon. p.s. all your other spot starts aren't terrible.. straily is intriguing but he never gets deep enough into games to help you much. Same with nicasio. Estrada can get you some k's but the brew crew are awful right now and he has a career era north of 4.5 (without looking, i can confidently say this is probably true) Good luck!
